Orange C2C Crochet Square

The next square in our fruit C2C series is an orange! Although I feel like this could double as a pumpkin I like a project that can be used for more than one thing!

Over the next few weeks, I’ll be posting a series of fruit themed corner-to-corner crochet squares! These C2C pieces are small and doable! They can be started and finished in a day or two. This orange design happens to be in a 12 by 12 pixel square with a finished size of 8 x 8 inches, but not all the fruits will fit in the same pixel graph. They are close in size, but not exactly the same.

If you missed the Cherry Square, you can get the tutorial HERE

I am using Red Heart Super Saver Yarn for the fruit squares and the colors I have chosen will be repeating throughout all of them. I will have more updates on yarn (shhhh… there might be a deal coming your way soon!)

If you are new to the Corner-to-Corner (C2C) Crochet technique, let me explain a little bit about it. You can take a pixel graph and turn it into a crocheted piece. By starting in one corner of the graph (the lower right hand is most common place to start), you will crochet crochet diagonally in rows until you get to the other corner. One pixel square = a chain 2 + 3 HDC stitches. Please note that I am using HDC (half double crochet) stitches for the C2C instead of DC (double crochet).

Below is a Corner-to-Corner Video Tutorial that might help:
